One of the rare Starflite Throwing Devices!
Write-up by Rhett Stidham

Bo Randall personally designed the Starflite in 1972. The Starflite was sold by catalog insert and was listed at $85.00 in 1972. An efficient six pointed throwing device that will pierce its target on every good throw. The collapsible feature permits deeper penetration of the striking blade: also enables complete folding for carrying. It is also an effective instrument for hand held protection.

Dimensions are: -- 1. 3/16" X 1" X 15" double pointed blade: 2. 3/16" X 1" X 11" double pointed blades, affixed with a flat headed stainless steel bolt, silver soldered in place and wing nut. Weight 1-1/4 lbs. Fully polished. Comes with a special belt carrying case of oil tanned leather. Price $85.00".

The Starflite did not sell well and the 1978 catalog was probably the last offering. Only 36 Starflites were sold to the public. Somewhere between 5 and 10 were made for Bo since he loved to throw a knife and this was one of his favorites.

This was Bo Randall's last design of a throwing knife. He had been interested in knife throwing for many years. Bo made throwing knives as early as 1938 and 1939.
